Default We need pictures!

Sounds very interesting. I am a "purist" when it comes to the outward appearance of a Cobra. The look that spawned a hundred thousand replicas has a lot to do with the popularity of the car and there is a lot more to it than a couple of round headlights, a big oval mouth, bulging fenders and sidepipes. When it comes to drivetrain and suspension, I side with the Shelby approach: use what is available and works well.

I would love to see some pictures of a finished Cobra so we can assess the overall look, proportions and stance. Any driving impressions and performance specs? For the true purists, can you offer a bare body/chassis that could be finished with a "correct" blue oval drivetrain?
